Hello All,
I am writing a report on Grid Computing for College and one section of it is
"The History of High Performance Computing"
I am just wondering if you have any thoughts on this.

I have plenty of information on Grid Computing and Clusters, it is before
them that I need a pointer or two.

What I have in my list is

Systolic
Vector
SIMD(Simple Instruction, Multiple Data)
Dataflow
PIM
MPPs
Clusters
Grids

Can you help me with dates and information on these systems. Any input is
welcome.
Regards,

Mel.
